OLogy Cards > Bengal tiger

This mighty member of the cat family is a powerful predator. It can leap up to 30 feet in the air, climb trees, and even swim. Tigers aren't picky carnivores. They will eat critters as small as a mouse but prefer larger prey, even a meal as big as a one-ton water buffalo! In 1920, there were roughly 100,000 tigers in the world. Today, there are fewer than 4,000.
